The Purge
a
lifetime
of
mementoes
collected,
consuming
closets
and
minds,
fragments
from
moments
both
broken
and
beautiful
of
people,
places
and
things
cleared
away
to
uncover
the
lost space
inside
ourselves
The Space Between
somewhere
a
place exists
between
letting go
and
holding on
that
settles
and
satiates
our
anxious spirit,
a
place
where
we no longer
lament
over
what is lost
or
cling to
what
we wish
would
be,
surrendering
in
this space
to
exhale,
and
embrace,
that
which
merely
is
Unspoken Words
in
stillness
God
speaks,
calling
us
away
from
the incessant
ramblings
and
unnecessary
clamour
and
surrounds
and
deters us
from
our desired
destiny,
helping
us
to
declutter the
silence
and sift
through
the
extraneous
to
hear,
enlightenment
echo
the
authenticity
of
our own
salvation
